I was terrified of the prospect of a third party candidate. A three-way, split vote might very well … if the third candidate were viable and interesting … insure the re-election of the worst President in American history, Barack Obama. Nothing would make James Carville happier.
Unless, of course, this third party candidate were Hillary Clinton!
Carville would be strapping on two Colt 45’s, lock n’ load, and mosey on down to the 2012 OK Corral right behind the Secretary of State. Hillary Clinton is now, if you don’t mind my saying so, Carville’s “Main Man”.
James Carville is not, if you remember, a “Judas” like former Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico.
The Third Party Possibility was a worry I had dispelled awhile ago when Glenn Beck seemed adamant about not running for the Presidency on a Third Party ticket.
Now we have James Carville absolutely certain that someone, so far unnamed, will run against both the Republican and Democratic Candidates.
“I think,” said Glenn Beck in November of 2009,”a third party candidate is going to win in 2012!”
Was Beck talking about himself then?
No.
Beck, in 2009, mentioned Sarah Palin as a third party candidate.
Is Carville echoing the notion?
Is Sarah Palin going to tie a can on the Republican Party, organize the Tea Party into an outside threat to both Donkeys and Elephants, throw the entire election into a cocked hat and possibly have Barack Obama re-elected?!
The prospect of Mitt Romney as President of the United States seems so much like a RINO’s Obama Lite … that … well … why not?! An utterly unharnessed Sarah Palin, letting, as Nancy Reagan would suggest, Sarah be Sarah?!
She’d win!!
If Romney were the Republican candidate, I would be begging Ms. Palin to run, hoping that God’s miracle would happen and we would have a President Sarah Palin in the White House.
Michelle Bachman, if nominated, cannot win. Chris Christie could but he’s vowed not to run.
As a Third Party Candidate announcing in September, Sarah Palin could always throw her votes to the Republican candidate, if indeed it were a viable conservative who was truly conservative and pro-Life.
If the Republican nominee is Romney, Sarah gets in the ring and takes on two male opponents at the same time, revealing how unsuitable both her opponents are for the Presidency.
Unfortunately, if Sarah Palin does not run as a Republican, she wouldn’t be there to defeat Michelle Bachman in the primary. Trying to defeat Obama and another female candidate in the election … well … wait a minute … Ms. Palin could actually and simply ignore candidate Bachman. Concentrate on Obama’s monstrosity of a first term. If she defeats Obama, she defeats Bachman.
Why?
Michelle Bachman does not carry the superstar weight of Sarah Palin, nor is she a Mamma Grizzly. Both realities will become readily apparent to everyone.
Let the Republican candidate and her Party throw their vote to Sarah Palin!!
America cannot possibly endure another four years of this Presidency. The United States would not be “transformed”.
America would be destroyed.
Never to regain its world leadership.
Ever.
Does Carville, a rabidly political animal, know something that even the Republicans don’t know about Sarah Palin? She would, indeed, be the most dangerous addition as a Third Party candidate. Her avoidance of declaring her candidacy until the last minute, possibly September, leaves us all wondering … yes … desperately analyzing what her strategies might be. As a latecomer, she’s not going to wear out her welcome, nor will she give away her debating game plan until the last minute.
Does she want to entirely avoid the Republican primary which now seems like what the theater calls a “cattle call”. There are dwindling distinction to being a Republican candidate this year. The list has yet to have the ring of a winning roster.
Today we learned that Sarah Palin’s bus tour is on again and headed for Iowa.
Hmmm … nice display of an increasingly unpredictable free will but clearly with a winning game plan behind it. Remember how her bus tour fooled the press?! Yet, at the same time, we knew she wasn’t keeping any secrets from us!
We know what she stands for and her arrival anywhere is God’s blessing.
If the Republican Party has not begged Sarah Palin to run in its primary, the Elephants deserve to lose their trunks.
I’d almost say that America deserves to lose her as a President.
That, however, would be like saying America should never have had the privilege of knowing President Abraham Lincoln.
I’m a disgruntled exile … but I haven’t lost hope. I still believe that God’s lightning could actually strike America twice with His chosen candidate.
From a Lincoln that ended slavery to a Sarah Palin who could begin to end wholesale abortions and any new forms of legalized murder that the Progressives hope to shove down our throats.
The divine promise of the United States hasn’t been extinguished.
Our homeland’s flame still burns brightly in our hearts if no longer in the torch of Our Lady In The Harbor. The Eastern Seaboard candidates of both parties seem corrupt, tarnished or not ready to run.
Sarah Palin is not running as a candidate.
She is walking slowly, steadily and carrying a big stick called The Truth.
Many of us know the essentials of what that is but hear it most clearly from Sarah Palin.
That’s the breath of fresh air we need.
Clarity!
And the triumphantly Lincoln-like grace of simplicity.
2 plus 2 is 4.
It is not, as our Red-faced, Ivy League graduates in the Obama White House would have us believe, 4.566022299999666 ………
